Almost every small business owner that I know is either 1) currently renegotiating their lease with their landlord, or 2) getting ready to renegotiate their lease. From business owners I have talked to, they are experiencing a wide range of reactions, communication and negotiations. Some landlords are working with tenants to try to keep them, others have drawn a line that they don’t renegotiate with tenants. I know one strip mall that has lost half their tenants solely because the landlord won’t renegotiate with clients. What are you experiencing? Are you trying to renegotiate your lease? Is your landlord open to talks? DId you find a win/win resolution? Share your experiences!
